2. Product

A product should draw attention to three terms: customer needs, acceptability and objects. About the customer needs, the product should answer to these needs. When you reffer to wine, you are inclined to say that this product satisfy only your physiological needs, but this is not necessarly true; it can satisfy also your relational needs because when you drink a glass of wine you are with your family or friends and you enjoy this way a nice meal.

Acceptability reffers to the matter if people may aprove or may not your product. Some people, because of the religion or education , don’ t drink alcohol so this way you can say that are nonconsumers of Vincon products. Also, it is very known that the law prohibites the sale of alcohol to children under the age of 18 years.

Objects raise questions about the products you sell, the way it are made and the quality these products have. About objects will talk later when we present range, technology and quality.
